Classic vinyl Roulette re-issue. By far the best sounding 'big-band' album in my collection. Each and every track. Basie's minimalist playing style carries over into the arrangements which highlights each instrument, and each section.

Has supplanted "Brothers In Arms" as the most listened to.

I'm curious to know why Count Basie was called minimalist and non-pianistic. I think his style is SIMPLICITY.
